COVID-19
As previously announced, Cirque Wonderland Studios will be closed until April 1st, 2020. All events held at Cirque are canceled or postponed, and the Student Showcase (April 18, 2020) has been postponed.
It’s heartbreaking to have to shut our doors, but we know that doing so is in the best interests of this community that we love so much.
On Saturday, March 14th, team members worked diligently to clean and disinfect over 3,000 square feet of studio space amidst the COVID-19 pandemic! Every single surface, apparatus, prop, mat, and piece of equipment was wiped down and sterilized. Every piece of fabric was pulled down and washed, and all the flooring and soft mats were rug doctored.
We aren’t sure yet when it’ll be safe to resume studio use, but when it becomes time, we will be comforted knowing it’s ready!

VIRTUAL CLASSES
In the meantime, please join us for online classes! We are excited to work with our students in fun and unique ways. We will be releasing at home videos in our Facebook member group (Down the Rabbit Hole | Cirque Wonderland) as well as offering live virtual classes through ZOOM. Ballet, Contortion, Flexibility, Handstands, “Fake Aerial,” Conditioning, Quarantine & Coffee, and more! We understand that some of our loyal and supportive clients have been financially impacted by this pandemic --- therefore, we are not charging for virtual classes!! If you are able to maintain your membership, we humbly ask that you do so. If you need to pause your membership or if you have a punch card and still want to contribute, a small donation would be greatly appreciated (see below). Classes begin Monday March 30th. The schedule is online in Zen Planner. (note you do not need to register through Zen Planner) |

MEMBERSHIPS
Students who need to pause their monthly memberships may do so by emailing us at info@cirquewonderland.com . The length of your hold will be added to the end of your membership term. For example: if your six-month membership began January 1st and ends June 30th, but you pause your membership for April and May (two months), those two months will be added to the end of your term; your contract would then expire August 31st. We understand that times are challenging right now. As a service business, we depend exclusively on membership fees to operate. If you are in a position to do so, we humbly ask that you continue your membership without interruption. Online classes and virtual shows are great during this period of physical distancing, but we want to be here with you all in person again when this is all over! As a small, independently owned local business, we need the support of our community to do so. |
